So you want to know some more about me huh?

I’m a second-year Ph.D. student in the Program of the Study of LGBT Health, a Jonas-Blaustein Scholar, and a Diversity Fellow at Columbia University School of Nursing.

I currently serve as the HPiT Co-Chair on the executive board of GLMA: Health Professionals Advancing LGBTQ Equity.

Prior to my healthcare career, I was a certified natural chef, perinatal nutritionist, and clinical herbalist. I used this knowledge and training to bootstrap two profitable small businesses in the health and wellness industry: Ambrosia Healing and Maternity Maven

Things that make me happiest include: slow cooking, challenging conversations, being in the mountains, traveling to remote places, and running outside during the fall.

I currently live in NYC with my wife and several plant babies.

Let’s continue getting to know one another.
